It feels like spring is finally here

Even though we went to the tot lot many times last summer, we're just now ready to get out of the stroller and really check things out. Not surprisingly, the swing is still a hit. The breeze really makes Evan's hair poufy. The grass slowed him down a little, here he is sampling the leaves, thankfully they were not to his taste. Can't wait to go again.

Whew! I'm worn out

This is what happens after a long day of fresh air, crawling and swinging. Looks awkward but lately it's been a favorite.

Our home office

So, here's our "remodel" of the home office. There is actually a desk, file cabinet and printer in the room . We've already had many hours of fun time in here.

Why can't I hold the water in my hands?

Bath time continues to be fun time. Splashing is a favorite, as well as dropping the bath toys out of the tub. Evan often times can't stay still for drying off, lotion, and putting on pajamas. He also squirms a lot during diaper changing. He doesn't know why he can't practice his crawling while he's on the changing table.

I like to play with the big boys

One of our babysitters has two boys of her own, Tyler who's 5 and Evan who's 3. Wow, another Evan. They have a lot of toys and they like to show them off to baby Evan. They've even been generous enough in the past to give Evan some toys they don't play with anymore. Thanks!

A HUGE WEEK!!!

Well, we're in the middle of winter here in cold and snowy Chicagoland. The car show is in town and Evan has picked out his ride... he likes the big, bad truck just like his Uncle Reid. He looks right at home behind the wheel. There's NO WAY we're giving him keys for at least another 16 years!

In other news we've discovered that we have cabinets. And by "we" we're talking about Evan of course. In this picture it happens to be the living room's entertainment center. He seems to be saying... "Hey, Mom and Dad... there's stuff in here!"

And exactly ten seconds later... mommy and daddy made a change in our living environment which we know is JUST THE BEGINNING!

Thankfully we went to "Babies R Us" recently and bought a selection of anti-Evan locks, latches and outlet plugs... we had a feeling!

And last but not least... we've buried the lead story!

Favorite toys

Lately, one of Evan's favorite toys are some plastic balls that we put in a box and he can watch them roll through the box and come out the bottom. He seems endlessly fascinated to see them roll around. Mommy and Daddy like that this is a good old fashioned toy, no batteries required and we're getting so much use of this simple toy. We like to share fun times like this on the blog. Recently, Evan got his first and hopefully only case of infectious conjunctivits, also known as the dreaded pink eye. We're done with it now but putting medicine in the eyes was hard on everyone.
